Middle Earth: Shadow Of War (Xbox One)

The sequel to the critically-acclaimed Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor-winner of over 50 industry awards-arrives the August, continuing the original story of Talion and Celebrimbor, who must now go behind enemy lines to forge an army and turn all of Mordor against the Dark Lord, Sauron. Experience an epic open world brought to life by the Nemesis System. Forge a new Ring of Power, conquer Fortresses in massive battles and dominate Mordor with your personal orc army in Middle-earth: Shadow of War. Go behind enemy lines to forge your army, conquer Fortresses and dominate Mordor from within. Experience how the award-winning Nemesis System creates unique personal stories with every enemy and follower, and confront the full power of the Dark Lord Sauron and his Ringwraiths in this epic new
story of Middle-earth. In Middle-earth: Shadow of War, nothing will be forgotten. Continuing their quest for vengeance, Talion and Celebrimbor forge a new Ring of Power and set out to conquer Mordor. Rather than follow a single central plot, the story quickly splits along multiple threads, from confronting the threat of the ringwraiths to helping a beleaguered spirit hold back a cabal of necromancers. The pace is always brisk, but I enjoyed each of the largely self-contained plotlines, and the way they shed light on a land drenched in sorrow and warfare. Everything comes together in a satisfying final turn, setting up the canonical events of The Lord of the Rings and maintaining the open-world gameplay for some dramatic new twists post-campaign. The game suggests a story conceit for
continued warfare after the central conflict has come to a head, and in a way that provides new toys to enjoy. SHADOW OF WAR MULTIPLAYER Shadow of War's online play isn't a traditional co-op or versus mode, instead introducing the all-new Social Conquest mode that allows us to invade the worlds of other players. Once you've grabbed your forces, you're free to attack the bases of other players in both friendly and ranked online modes. SHADOW OF WAR ONLINE As well as kicking over your friend's sandcastles, Shadow of War's online play also sees the return of Vendettas. We're not all about destruction, after all - sometimes you just want to help a pal out. That's why, if one of your online friends has been killed at the hands of a powerful orc, you will have the opportunity to avenge
their death.
